I don't care if they're "reboots" - it really isn't that hard to accept that Doom 3 was a re-imagining of Doom 1.

You mean like Star Wars: Dark Forces 4 Jedi Knight 3 Jedi Academy?

This has to be the best break down of the naming of the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight/Jedi Academy games I've ever seen.

I wish they'd release a newer Jedi Knight game along the same lines as Dark Forces 2 Jedi Knight. Far and away the best of the series IMO.

Actually, I thought it was Star Wars: Dark Forces 4: Jedi Knight 3: Jedi Outcast 2: Jedi Academy? Or is it a non-issue after the second colon?

I loved Outcast, played it to death. Jedi Academy? Not so much... *shrugs*

Was about to post the same thing, me and a buddy got in an argument about this a few months ago. I could have sworn it was 4:3:2:1 but he insisted that Jedi Academy was a sequel to Jedi Knight and not Jedi Outcast... though it was definitely on the Jedi Outcast (ie: Quake 3) engine.

Ditto on the not playing jedi academy too much... all the pieces were great, I loved outcast and the general gameplay... but something about academy just didn't do it for me :/
